Were screwed if I get such an injury. We sold the CX9 and Ive been bouncing between the Jeep, the REPU, and the Rx7. We dont have an auto in the fleet anymore.

You baby boomers taking all the good jobs from us millennials! Arrrh! J/K ;) Got my tickets for Limerock. Depending on weather we will probably just take the Jeep. The REPU is running fine now but I havent tried towing with it, and its not a comfy drive in hot weather. Update on the Rx7...

Ill be there, still have to call and get tickets and a camping spot.

Took me the whole front straight to go from about 80-85mph to 100mph. I dont recall getting over 100 but at some point you gotta look away from the speedo and find your braking point. LOL! I should have worn my bicycling heart rate monitor. That would be interesting to review the stats on.

Yeah, You might not get air at the speeds you were traveling but youll certainly unload the rear suspension enough to cause a problem if you still have the wheel cocked. The turns are so big and fast compared to the other tracks we run its easy to get lost. Glad you enjoyed it!

How did it go?

Awesome! You're gonna love it! Some tips... Turn 1 is a double apex. Some drivers are gonna be out in the marbles upon entry, don't follow them. You need to be turning in at the bridge so you can hit that first apex as you trail brake and go wide after it to setup for the second apex. Late...

Wow, great turn out! What event was this again?

Poking around the parts catalog it looks to be the left temp actuator part # L207-61-A60. The only thing is, I saw that one move. It's visible by removing the plastic trim panel under the driver's side dash and looking up toward the center console. We adjusted the left side temp and I saw it...

When trying to get A/C to turn on, we get ice cold air from the passenger vents and rear vents but the driver's vents blows ambient temp air. It occurs whether we are in single zone or dual zone mode. It occurs whether in floor or vent mode. Heater works fine. I'm guessing it is an actuator on...

Yeah its the seal between the front end plate and the water pump housing. I know I torqued it to spec so my best guess is that the gasket just failed. There are two washers that go on the other studs...I didnt forget them, but that is usually the reason for failure. For the rear, it...

Man you must be feeling like Dave Chappell in that movie Half Baked. Secret stash, hands off! So I think Mahk already saw the videos but I had the Rx7 up at NHMS last week. Still have some hesitation in the tune I need to work out but once i get on it, she goes! Only thing holding me back...

Woah, where have you been!

Awesome congrats Mark!

This dragon run below was wet, but at least it wasnt raining like the rest of my runs. I wanted to get a tire cam shot but that angle never works when the road debris mists up the GoPro lens. You dont have to watch the whole thing, it gets rather repetitive once you start to recognize the...

Id say its probably 8/10ths the way there. Still some rough spots in the tune but there is no issue cruising, or hammering the throttle. I have a list of things I need to look at over the next few weeks, primarily, its burning more oil than it should and I may have to switch to premixing...

Worth it! The Kanc is a joke compared to the roads in around the Tail of the Dragon region. I understand why people have high powered cars. The hills and elevation change is insane, and the dragon itself is tighter than an Autocross course but with banked turns.

Pick a date and Ill see if I can make it. All packed up, heading to Tail of the dragon in the morning.

Or I could engineer some variable length horns like the 787 and fatten up the curve! I was really surprised they needed to be that short, because the FD has much longer runners. Even the RX8 intake is tall, but it opens up a passage between the runners at higher RPM so the rotors can share air.

I recall those guys being a bit stand-off-ish during our encounters with them at Limerock. Update on the Rx7. Shes basically done and tuned! I took it to Flat Out Motorsports in Mendon because they have a dynapack that is easier to tune the cruising cells. The numbers dont really compare to...
